Is email in the ACME section still required?

[brother]

Is it still required to add the email line in the ACME section of traefik static configuration file? Traefik & ACME Certificates Resolver - Traefik says it’s required, but commenting it out and running docker compose down and up -d again gives no errors or warnings. But that might be because my TLS certificate expires in more than 30 days. I’m going to check again when it actually tries to renew it.

Let’s Encrypt discontinued the expiration notification service in June this year to save resources and increase privacy so I would argue it makes sense for Traefik to not require it any more…

From my own experience it’s not required anymore, as LetsEncrypt doesn’t use it anymore.
